August Newsletter
Dear Brothers, Sisters and Volunteers:
“But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels inheaven, nor the Son,[fl but only the Father. As it was in the days of Noah,so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.” (Matthew 24:36-37)NIV
Recently, the Hong Kong Observatory has hosted several black rainstorm signals, reminding us of theuncertainty and fragility of life. As we enjoy the comforts of daily life, should we also be mindful of ourinner spirit? In Noah’s day, people were did want to belive on the coming disaster, and this numbness causedthem to lose their chance of salvation. Today, we face similar challenges: the busyness of life and theconstant barrage of information may cause us to overlook God’s call to our hearts. Vigilance is not only about being alert to the outside world but also about reflecting on our inner selvec. May we in this era of uncertainty, remain steadfast in our faith, no matter how the environment changes, and become a child who continue to rely on the Heavenly Father with unwavering resolve amidst the storms.
Thank the Lord for His guidance! The Hong Kong Bible Conference has been successfully concluded for 10 days.CWVIP broadcasted the conference by zoom software to enable visually impaired to listen to the BibleConference via landline telephones and computers. Additionally, 34 individuals required CVIP to arrangebraille or text document programmes and scriptures. On average, 18 visually impaired people participated ineach session through our system, while others accessed our daily provided URL to listen to the sessions onYouTube independently. Over the 10 days, a total of 403 people used CVIP services to participate. Thankthe Lord for granting us modern technology, enabling visually impaired people in need to hear God’s words. May we all grow together in the Spirit!
